**Afan Forest Park’s Blade trail is a fantastic addition to the network. With lots of great singletrack, offering a great trail for more experienced riders.**

This trail takes you to higher and more remote sections of the forest with amazing views over the Brecon Beacons. It twists and winds through the distant forest with some tough technical climbs and descents before dropping back to Glyncorrwg.

Looking for more distance? You can also add-in a loop of the old Skyline trail. Make sure you are properly equipped as this extra loop takes you to a very remote area with changeable weather conditions. Llwybr Skyline Loop Trail
